Portishead: Dummy (1994) Ep. 131

For all you lot lizards out there it could be sweet if you downloaded this week's episode which is about Portishead and the 131st greatest album of all time, Dummy. You don't need a Double D long haul truckers license to ride these roads!   But before we get to the music, we respond to an email about unopened gifts and wonder what's in the glory box. We then give the best Valentine's Day advice, discuss work happy hours, and ponder how the NBA trade deadline has us grappling with our own mortality. We also become the only podcast to ever talk about the Golden Girls, as we ponder a love triangle with the main host, JLo, and Blanch.   Then at (48:00) we put this album on a pedestal and discuss Portishead's debut studio album, Dummy. We discuss Trip Hop music, Portishead's instrumentation choices, and the best James Bond theme songs.   Next week's episode should be paired with jambalaya, a crawfish pie, and fillet gumbo because son of a gun we'll have some big fun when we become the best Hank Williams podcast and discuss his 40 Greatest Hits compilation.
